Seoon Jung - Visual Artist 

Seoon Jung (b. 1984) is a contemporary visual artist based in Daegu, South Korea. She received her B.F.A. in Painting from Daegu University and its graduate school in 2009, and has since maintained an active presence in the contemporary art scene both in Korea and abroad.

Jung began her artistic practice at the Yeongcheon Art Studio in 2009 and subsequently expanded her creative activities internationally. From 2013 to 2017, and again in 2020, she was based in Berlin, Germany, where she participated in a range of exhibitions and collaborative projects, further deepening her cross-cultural artistic engagement.

Her recent exhibitions include a solo show at Apsan Gallery in Daegu in 2023, as well as presentations of new work at the Culture & Arts Factory and in Pohang in 2024. Throughout her career, she has consistently explored the interplay between memory, space, and emotion through a variety of media and site-responsive installations.

At the core of Jung’s practice is the recurring motif of the "house," which serves as both subject and metaphor for her investigations into spatial relationships, emotional distance, and the nature of human connection. By engaging with both physical and psychological dimensions of space, her work reflects a profound contemplation of presence, absence, and the fragile architecture of lived experience.
